Pita Salad Sandwiches With Tahini Sauce

I love tahini sauce and pita sandwiches! I adapted this recipe slightly from one I found in Vegetarian Times.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 4 pita sandwiches

Ingredients

• Tahini Sauce

• 1  cup low-fat plain yogurt or 1  cup nonfat plain yogurt
• 2  tablespoons tahini
• 1  garlic clove
• 1  teaspoon lemon juice
•  salt, to taste

• Pita Pockets

• 4  large  whole wheat pita bread
• 8  ounces feta cheese
• 4  tomatoes, plum, ripe and diced
• 1  cup  spinach leaves, fresh and torn into bite-sized pieces
• 1  cup alfalfa sprout
• 1  large avocado, ripe, halved, pitted, peeled and cut into wedges
• 1  cucumber, diced

Directions

1. In a small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients until blended.
2. Slice an edge from each pita bread, and carefully open pockets.
3. In a medium bowl, combine feta, tomatoes, and spinach. Add 1/4 cup of sauce, and toss gently to mix. Spoon the mixture into each pocket.
4. Divide sprouts, cucumber, and avocado among the sandwiches. Drizzle each with about 1 Tbsp of tahini sauce.
5. Serve right away.
